John Titor - Knew about Hydrogen?

It is stated on the John Titor homepage reguarding a certain question:

"Is propane still around in the future?"
-
"Yes but not very much of it comes from natural gas. Hydrogen is converted into propane because it's easier to handle."

Hydrogen was recommended by President George Busch in 2004. He was going to use it for future use.

How would this man know about this when it was officially annouced in 2004? I mean he must be very correct for future planning ahead of president
annoucements for Florida?

PRESIDENT ANNOUNCES FREEDOM FUEL INITIATIVE IN STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS

In his State of the Union address, President Bush announced a $1.2 billion FreedomFUEL Initiative, saying "America can lead the world in developing
clean, hydrogen-powered automobiles." The President proposed "a new national commitment, [in which] our scientists and engineers will overcome
obstacles to taking these cars from laboratory to showroom - so that the first car driven by a child born today could be powered by hydrogen, and
pollution-free." FreedomFUEL would invest $720 million in new funding over the next five years to develop the technologies and infrastructure needed
to produce, store, and distribute hydrogen for use in fuel cell vehicles and electricity generation. Combined with the FreedomCAR (Cooperative
Automotive Research) Initiative, President Bush is proposing a total of $1.7 billion over the next five years to develop hydrogen-powered fuel cells.

Through partnerships with the private sector, FreedomFUEL and FreedomCAR would seek to develop new vehicle and fuel technologies and infrastructure
needed to make it practical and cost-effective for large numbers of Americans to choose to use fuel cell vehicles by 2020. If successful, these
initiatives would dramatically reduce the need for imported oil. These initiatives are also key components of the President's clean air and climate
change strategies.

- the president is going to do an official anouncement about investing into hydrogen fuel for cars.

Furthermore, the president did not officially anounce:

hydrogen is converted into propane

And he shouldn't be! because reformers usually work the other way around, stripping propane from carbon to make hydrogen on the flye. kinda hard to
reform hydrogen into propane without hydrogen having carbon (was this guy posting under the nickname John Titor not paying attention to the details
when he read all those articles of emerging technology on space.com and zdnews back in late 2000 ?)

Propane fuel cell has been into science and preudoscience certainly since the late nineties. I haven't seen yet anything shocking in ANY of John
Titor revelations or things he couldn't have known.

As time goes by, inconsistencies in his predictions seems to grow rather than to converge.

Excuse me, but this John Titor character as I read it said:

it did not predict:

In Florida (Wich where I live) the President George W. Busch annouced on television about it. DONT tell me he didnt cause I watched that day and I
just gave you a local government website!

Busch didnt say Hydrogen into propane but replacing the original gas systems (Titor mentioned converting that Hydrogen into propane)

"Propane fuel cell has been into science and preudoscience certainly since the late nineties."

If you care to read my posts carefully you would notice I didn't state:

- the president didn't anounce anything hydrogen,

I stated:

1. John Titor did not predict the president announcing ANYTHING
2. the presidential itselve announcement did not contain a referrence about the conversion of hydrogen into propane

People have been talking about hydrogen since the 80's, this guy posting under the nickname John Titor starts talking about it in 2001, I think he
is kinda late to jump on the bandwagon and Bush is even later, only now that OilPeak is coming and also there is a need for hybrid systems to give the
Bradley and the Hummers and other defense vehicles more torque wit lower speeds and also a souce of electricity to attach new fancy laser weapons,
Bush suddenly "discovers" fuel cell technology, big deal.
